Thanks! That was a helpful link. The following was interesting: "Some, like Math::Pari, did not easily install, and could not install with the CPAN module (might be different now, I don't know)." I'm glad to know it's not just something stupid I'm doing :-) I guess Net::SFTP is definitely out, since my end users are likely to have even less code fu than I do. | [reply] |
